More about: Manic Street Preachers
Manic Street Preachers have announced a beautiful and epic reissue of their 1994 classic album The Holy Bible, to celebrate its 20th anniversary. See the package above and full tracklist below.
The reissue, released on 8 December, will be available on vinyl for the first time since 1994, when it was out as a limited edition picture disc.
A statement reads:
"The record will be available with BBC recordings of the 1994 Astoria shows released commercially for the first time and a beautifully curated book with rare, previously unseen images, including exclusive photos by Mitch Ikeda, handwritten lyrics, sleeve notes from Keith Cameron and notes from the band.
"The 12” x 12” box contains the remastered album on 180gm heavyweight vinyl plus 4 CDs and a 40 page book. The cd’s will contain the full album, the remastered US version, b-sides, mixes live versions and a previously unreleased version of ‘Revol’. There is also a live CD of the band’s last performances with guitarist Richey Edwards from the Astoria on December 1994. It is rounded up with a few acoustic tracks from the album from a recent Radio 4 Mastertapes session the band did in Maida Vale in September of this year (which airs on 17th November at 11pm)."
The album is available to pre-order through the band's website here.
